our tanker is a freightliner and we love it. It has great turning radius for the tight roads and driveways we have in new fairfield. it handles the 1750gal of water with ease. Comfortable easy driving with plenty of power for the hills!

our engine is a mid-side mount, we also have a front suction on a swivle on the front bumper which is necessary since we have a few dry hydrants where the only way to get to them is pulling nose in. our tanker has a pump panel mounted in the foward most lower compartment on the driverside, the down side to this is in order tog et the panel in there we were forced to go with an oiled primer and it is also tufdf to see the gauges unless you kneel down in front of it while using it

My old department had phones paid for by the chief and if any officers had phones it was the individual company's call if they wanted them to have them or not but it would have to be paid for by the company. My current dept has one for car 1 our cheif but the assit cheifs have there own with no rebates In vermont where i have a cabin the fire department issued radios to all active members and they use them like phones its kind of funny. All of a suddon you will here car 19 meet me at the gas staiton or things like that. Apperently they got a grant for radios and got 20 of them. for a small town of maybe 1000 residents all twenty active member got radios since all the truck were all ready had old raidos
